To dispose of commercial garden waste, you need to either register as a waste carrier or use a professional waste management company and arrange collections by licensed waste carriers. Failure to do so could result in a hefty fine. Using a waste removal company such as Business Waste offers an affordable and convenient solution.

When you produce commercial garden waste you must separate it by type for storage. This means using any bins, bags, skips, and containers to store grass cuttings, hedge clippings, weeds, and green waste apart from any rubble, wood, furniture, and general waste. When the project is finished, or your bins are full, they’ll be sent for disposal.

Our licensed waste carriers will collect your commercial garden waste at an agreed time. They’ll transport it to a nearby waste recycling centre where it’ll be separated by type, recycled, and disposed of. The disposal method depends on the waste type. So, the likes of waste wood may be recycled, while some commercial garden waste could be composted or incinerated.

Commercial green waste covers most rubbish produced from gardening activities in a professional setting. This includes taking on gardening jobs for homes and residential properties, as well as in commercial settings – such as gardening for hotels, office blocks, campsites, schools, hospitals, and other businesses.

Common types of commercial green waste are:

• Grass cuttings
• Leaves
• Hedge clippings
• Weeds
• Prunings
• Twigs, small branches, and bark
• Windfall fruit
• Unwanted seeds, bulbs, and plants

You cannot take commercial garden waste to most regular recycling centres run by the council or local authorities, as these are for domestic waste and recycling. Instead, you should find a nearby privately owned or specialist recycling centre that accepts commercial green waste. You must check they’re registered to dispose of and recycle waste.

Costs to use most private recycling and disposal sites are based on the weight or vehicle size and there’s often a minimum charge. Using a professional waste management firm can offer a more cost-effective option for disposal, which covers such fees.

Reducing the amount of green waste you send to a recycling and disposal site will save your business money on removal and collection costs. It also has a more positive impact on the environment by reducing the amount of energy and resources required to deal with commercial garden waste disposal and recycling.

A few ways to minimise the garden waste your business produces include:

• Sell logs – reduce waste and make a bit of money by selling any logs or branches to people with wood-burning fires or stoves.
• Compost on-site – if you’ve got the space then adding in a compost heap on-site reduces the energy needed for disposal. Plus, it provides useful compost for your business’ garden in a few weeks.
• Reuse what you can – repair, repurpose, and decorate any old and broken garden items rather than throw them away.
• Donate old items – when clearing out a garden you could donate old furniture, plant pots, and other items to local charities.
